My journey to a debt free life

I can’t believe your dds attitude and her not asking if you need anything or if you’re ok. I don’t blame you not wanting to text her.
Please take care of yourself and even if it’s ‘just a virus’ don’t go rushing back to work. It’s obviously something that’s got a real hold of you so your immune system has taken a battering...... and your leaving yourself open to picking everything up. 

Hope dd feels better soon. It sounds horrendous.

Bit worried about you both. Hope you're ok x

Get well soon, whatever it is. Poor both of you! And rotten of your other daughter not to be more considerate.

If/When you speak to your daughter point out that if you are ill and are obviously infectious it would would be pretty stupid for you to baby sit whatever the bug is because it is likely you would infect your grandson and then she would have to take even more time off work or are you expected to care for a sick child who probably only wants his Mum.

😫our tests came back positive so we both have to self isolate for 10 days now,we aren't allowed back to work until the 23rd of October. DD 1 redeemed herself slightly this morning by offering to get food shopping for us if we need it. I really think that she doesn't think this virus is that big a deal and she probably just presumed we were exaggerating when I said how ill I had been over the weekend. Well she got a shock this morning when I told her our results . I've been asleep all morning but got up just now because my ribs were hurting lying down. I feel sick today which is apparently another symptom, the doctor from 111 told me to phone them back if I get D&V or if my breathing gets worse but so far it's stayed the same,he also said I could use the inhaler I was given last year when I had a chest infection, I was told by my gp to only use it if I was desperate because it interacts with my anti depressants but the doctor yesterday looked it up and couldn't find anything to back that up,I used it yesterday because I was so breathless after having a shower and it did help a bit. I have lost my sense of taste so don't really feel like eating anything but I got a sudden urge for a banana toasted sandwich so had that  for lunch
B is fed up because we can't take her out for a walk and I've got to muster up the energy to go and sort the 🐓🐓out yet, I didn't even check on them yesterday so need to make sure they have enough food and water at least today 
Poor DD2 is feeling really poorly and still has a temperature, she is in bed asleep at the moment and I think sleeping is the best thing for this so will leave her there for now

Oh no. Wishing you both a speedy recovery. I hope you are both ok and able to get everything you need from your DD.

Thanks Nicnak, we don't need anything yet and she lives a twenty minute drive away so I will probably ask my friend to drop some bits off,she parks outside my house on a Thursday to pick her granddaughter up from the school near my house, the freezer is well stocked so it's just just fresh bits that we will need.We were just about to do an online shop too 😟and poor DD2 is actually supposed to be on AL from tomorrow,it's the first holiday she had taken since she started her job and she was really looking forward to it.we were going to take B to the beach this weekend but that will have to wait now

Ah that's frustrating as well. Glad you can get things though. Lots of treats for you both to keep you going. X

Virtual hugs - get as much rest as you can. Is there anyone who can do the chickens for you? xx

Sorry to hear you tested positive, hope you start feeling better soon. Do you think you have caught it at work ? My niece Is in her second week of isolation and is still feeling wiped out. Look after yourselves the best you can . Is there anyone that could take B for a walk ?Good that you have your friend to drop stuff off.
